A cricket mat of mass \(50\text{ kg}\) is rolled loosely in the form of a cylinder of radiys \(2\text{ m}.\) Now, again it is rolled tightly so that the radius becomes \(\left(\dfrac{3}{4} \right)^{\text{th}} \) of original value; then the ratio of moment of inertia of mat in the two cases is:
1. \(1:3\)
2. \(4:3\)
3. \(16:9\)
4. \(3:5\)
